Rest in peace, professor. You helped to enlighten us all.

"All men die, but not all men die whining."
This man stayed true to hisself and his calling theough and through, knowing he was fighting an unwinnable war with fate.

It breaks my heart you passed away. Your philosophy videos on Kierkegaard explaining his Christian Existentialism were the most complete and fascinating ive found on the internet. Thank you for your contributions to philosophy.

The last lecture of one of the best teachers in history. We’ve been blessed to be able to see his lessons.

I bet that Socrates welcomed him in the afterlife with open arms as an old friend, and invited him to meet Plato, Aristotle, Kierkegaard and more.

My dad went to Princeton from 1997-2001 and he had Sagroo as his teacher. He now teaches at Norte Dame and his work is inspired by him, he said he was the best teacher he ever had. Rest In Peace.

This man, more than anyone else, helped reignite my passion for philosophy and is one of the main reasons I am currently studying and excelling in philosophy at university. Not only did he inspire me, he helped me mature through the hardest period of my life. Thank you Michael, may you forever rest in peace ❤️

This is his last video, and it's about life/death, and his hopeful revelation that faith and community are a fundamental part of civilization and the human experience. I think that's very fitting. Thanks for the enlightenment you brought all of us, Professor.

[masprevach]

your lectures helped me get through a dark episode in my life. I am forever grateful.
Rest in Peace, Professor.

I just learned today that this incredible human being is not longer with us. All I can say is Thank You. May this channel stay online forever. This content must be preserved in all storage forms.

Genevieve & members of the Sugrue family: I lost my own father mere days before the professor ascended to his reward, so I greatly empathize with the loss you suffered. We will all miss the great contributions but thank you all for preserving this in perpetuity to enlighten generations of the global gymnasium.

RIP Doctor Sugrue. As a layman in his field, I am very appreciative for all for content he made accessible and humility he held in his lectures. He was a great man and role model, rather that was his intention or not. Thanks again for all you shared with me.

[walkerzupp]

I discovered this man during my PhD, and I can honestly say that the real education I got during that period was from watching his lectures, opening my mind to the classics, and exercising my brain. Rest in peace, you will be missed.

Rest in Peace, Professor. I hope this reaches your family, thank you for your knowledge.

This GREAT MAN is singing the epic of History.
God give him strength.

Even in Eternity they will call him Philosopher.

Michael Sugrue planned to continue. But sadly this is or was his last lecture. And it's a wonderful, deep and global consideration about humanity and everyone of us. With his gifted mind he has given us in this last lecture a very insightful vision of our past. Qué maravilloso regalo, Michael. Gracias.

Coming from a young person, you gave reality a tangibility in a world that seems bereft of substance, RIP.
